Maintaining the integrity of your cylinder head is crucial for the performance and longevity of your Volvo 850's engine. An essential component of the cylinder head is the valve guides.

Choosing the Right Valve Guides for Your Volvo 850

When selecting new valve guides for your Volvo 850, it's important to choose high-quality replacements that match your vehicle's specifications.

What are Valve Guides?

Valve guides are cylindrical metal tubes that allow the engine valves to work correctly by keeping them aligned in the cylinder head. They are made out of robust metal for longevity.

If valve guides are damaged or fail, they could cause the valves to break and get damaged, leading to engine problems and possibly severe damage.
